Memo to libtards--I'll pay for your contraception when you pay for my ammunition. Deal?

Rush Limbaugh's insults and poor language towards a progressive poster child is still resonating. However, there isn't really a political debate occurring. Rather, it is simply emotional outrage masked as political discourse. This is exactly what's been wrong with the political system for the last 80 plus years: issues are no longer properly analyzed. The Statists have done their best to obfuscate the real debate because they have made every issue a personal attack. The real debate is whether you should work for yourself or you should work for the State. Do your rights flow from nature? Or are your...

Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh is being targeted by multiple death threats after President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party ignored his apology for controversial remarks and continued to single him out for rebuke. The assault has become so nakedly partisan and opportunistic that even HBO host Bill Maher--who recently donated $1 million to Obama's Super PAC--has called it a witch hunt with intimidation as its goal. Maher: Hate to defend #RushLimbaugh but he apologized, liberals looking bad not accepting. Also hate intimidation by sponsor pullout The death threats to Rush are captured in several screen grabs of his...

Rush Limbaugh has now lost a total of 36 advertisers, according to multiple sources, including national advertisers JC Penney and Capitol One. They join such high-profile companies as AOL, Sears, Carbonite, Geico, Netflix, Quicken Loan and ProFlowers. Watchdog group Media Matters is maintaining a list that says Limbaugh has lost 36 advertisers as of Tuesday, which was confirmed by USA Today. The latter source points out, “Some companies buy time directly on Limbaugh's show. Others instruct their ad agencies to buy what's known in the industry as run of schedule time, meaning their commercials run at different times of the...

Here's how Obama is spinning his attack on religious beliefs of millions into an "assault on women's healthcare." He says Republicans are ready to take us back to the "Dark Ages." What does Obama not understand about the First Amendment Freedom of Religion? What ever happened to the Separation of Church and State? It apparently only works in one direction, his direction. Here's their fund raising email that hit the email in boxes today. Friend -- We now know for certain that, no matter who the Republican nominee is, we're not only up against the same economic policies that helped...

He's fine, of course, with private citizens being attacked by his own campaign if it helps squeeze extra cash out of liberal suckers obsessed with the "Kochtopus" Granted, you can’t compare Fluke to the Kochs because they have endless resources at their disposal to fight back whereas she only has the Democratic establishment/major media eager to use her as a martyr for O's "war on women" messaging in the fall, but what about, say, Joe the Plumber? Jonah Goldberg looks back: You may recall that when Joe Wurzelbacher was approached by Barack Obama entirely accidentally, he became something of a...

Dear friends, since God so LOVED us, we also ought to LOVE one another. 1 John 4:11 We are clearly seeing a desperate play by a desperate Party. To attempt to switch the discussion from forcing a church to abandon its beliefs by state dictate is something only a tyranny like Nazi Germany would try. Then to cloak it behind women’s right to have contraception would be laughable if it wasn’t so tyrannical. Their Party is so obsessed with sex and being true to their faith they can’t understand why anything or anyone would disagree with their world view. The...

Here is one battle the Pentagon is not going to fight: Rush Limbaugh. Many of Mr. Limbaugh’s sponsors have dropped him in the wake of his controversial comments calling a Georgetown Law student, Sandra Fluke, a “prostitute” and “slut” after she testified about her school health plan’s lack of contraceptive coverage. Despite the controversy, the Pentagon so far is not going to review its decision to broadcast Mr. Limbaugh’s program on its overseas radio stations for U.S. troops, the American Forces Network. George Little, the Pentagon press secretary, said the AFN broadcast center provides the first hour of Mr. Limbaugh’s...

With cloud services now available, gone are the days of those local data backups to CDs or tape – or are they? If your business has a modest amounts of data to safeguard, then cloud services provide a convenient solution for moving a copy of your data over the web to a secure storage environment. The issue is with larger amounts of data, with some cloud backup providers like Carbonite reducing the speed at which the data is transferred. It’s a policy known as bandwidth throttling, something that competitors like CrashPlan say they avoid. If you know what you’re getting,...

Is this why Sandra Fluke went public? Look which groups behind Obama's contraception strategy Published: 11 hours ago by Aaron Klein Email Aaron Klein is WND's senior staff reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief. He also hosts "Aaron Klein Investigative Radio" on New York's WABC Radio. His latest book is the N.Y. Times best-selling, "The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and Other Anti-American Extremists Prior to her statements to congressional Democrats, did Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke have any prior connection to Obama administration officials? Did the congresswomen who pushed Fluke’s testimony coordinate with a marketing and...

In his press conference today, President Obama said he called Sandra Fluke because he thought about his daughters and wanted them to be able to take on issues as they grow up, as private citizens, and to engage in civil discourse without being attacked. He wanted Fluke's parents to be as proud of her for speaking out as he would be of his daughters. Great. So where is my phone call? I'm a daughter and a mother, but I didn't get one phone call when I was called a mobster, a terrorist, a nazi, a tea bagger, a homophobe and...

EVEN ON A BUDGET, FLUKE DOES NOT NEED TAXPAYER MONEY FOR HER SEXUAL ADVENTURES

On Saturday, Carbonite CEO David Friend released a statement on his company’s website declaring that Carbonite had decided to “withdraw” advertising from Rush Limbaugh’s radio show in the wake of his controversial remarks involving Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke because it will “ultimately contribute to a more civilized public discourse”: Even though Mr. Limbaugh has now issued an apology, we have nonetheless decided to withdraw our advertising from his show. We hope that our action, along with the other advertisers who have already withdrawn their ads, will ultimately contribute to a more civilized public discourse. However, it hasn’t done much...

Tonight Bill Maher defended Rush Limbaugh on Twitter: Despite Limbaugh's apology, the left continues to attack Limbaugh and drive away sponsors of his show with such intensities to invoke the public's suspicion. If it really was all about obtaining an apology, apology given, so why the continued drama? Because maybe it's not about an apology, it's about driving Limbaugh off the air. Maher's defense of Limbaugh is recognition of this: He himself has uttered some incredible four-letter descriptions of Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann. His defense is that he's an entertainer. And? Ridicule is the best weapon; comedy is deadlier...

I'm sorry Rush Limbaugh called 30-year-old Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke a "slut." She's really just another professional femme-a-gogue helping to manufacture a false narrative about the GOP "war on women." I'm sorry the civility police now have an opening to demonize the entire right based on one radio comment -- because it's the progressive left in this country that has viciously and systematically slimed female conservatives for their beliefs. We have the well-worn battle scars to prove it. And no, we don't need coddling phone calls from the pandering president of the United States to convince us to stand...

On Thursday, March 1, I began receiving a series of complaints from both listeners to The Kim Komando Show and non-listeners, concerning on-air comments made by Rush Limbaugh about Georgetown University Law Student Sandra Fluke and Ms. Fluke's comments. In this instance, everyone is clearly within his or her Constitutional rights. It's all part of the First Amendment, but sometimes free speech isn't pretty, in good taste or well chosen. With all this said, I know that some of the comments directed at me have come from long-time listeners to my program. I appreciate them all. But many others are...

During live coverage of Super Tuesday, MSNBC's Chris Matthews harkened back to a famous historical phone call from then-Senator John F. Kennedy to Coretta King, after her husband, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was arrested, as he suggested that President Barack Obama's recent phone call to Georgetown Law School student Sandra Fluke would be similarly remembered as important to this year's presidential campaign.

President Obama said Tuesday that concern for his two young daughters drove him to reach out and comfort Sandra Fluke, who was labeled a “slut” by Rush Limbaugh

Prior to her statements to congressional Democrats, did Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke have any prior connection to Obama administration officials? Did the congresswomen who pushed Fluke’s testimony coordinate with a marketing and polling outfit that recently conducted a survey to determine whether contraception mandates can become a possible presidential election issue? According to some reports, it was Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y., who pushed for Fluke’s testimony. Maloney also initiated the call for Fluke to sue Rush Limbaugh for his on-air derogatory remark about Fluke, according to the Daily Beast. Maloney is tied to a progressive pollster, Celinda Lake,...
